My wife and I have just started a family and we're plugging around in our 2017 Citroen C3 still.

It fits a car seat well enough, but with 2 dogs, and all the baby's stuff we're now looking to go bigger (struggled to fit a small shop in the other day and had to make two trips to and from the in laws to be able to bring the baby and dogs over...!)

With a rough budget of £20k, I was looking at some 2nd hand crossover SUVs like the latest Duster, Peugeot 3008, Sportage or Qashqai, as well as some estates (Skoda Octavia).

My wife however, doesn't want to go big and is looking more at things like the Juke, Puma, Stonic etc. but these don't seem like they'd have that much more space than what we already have when considering the increased costs? They just look like roided hatchbacks to me...

This is obviously our first time actually needing to increase size and change car, so any help with what to look for/consider or any experience in similar circumstances is appreciated.

We're struggling to wake our daughter up for her feeding. She's absolutely knackered (had a touch of jaundice in recovery) and stressed from the heatwave.

We've tried stripping her down, changing nappies, tickling her feet, damp cloth but she's just so tired.

Even when she finds the nipple, she will invariably fall asleep on it. We're bottle feeding with pumped milk if we need to, but my wife's struggling with doing that so often now.

Any tips?

EDIT: to be clear she is taking from the bottle, but we're trying for the breast and isn't latching - just falls asleep

EDIT 2: we went in and are being kept overnight for observation. Thank you all

My wife and I are pretty close to the birth, and loads of our extended family have mentioned in passing that they'll need to make arrangements for coming to see our new born in the hospital.

​

However, I'm less than keen on that and want it to be about me and my wife, with just the three of us there as far as possible.

​

Her parents will likely pop in, and I've accepted that, but aunts and siblings (with their children) have said they are planning on coming too.

​

My wife is a bit of a people pleaser and is concerned it'll upset people to say no, and is worried they'll just turn up at our house in the following days and weeks, so she's more ok with people being there at the hospital.

​

I'm getting a good amount of time off (likely longer than I'll ever get from work again), and I have expressed that I want to use that time to look after my wife as she recovers and bond with my child. But I'm concerned we'll spend the time trying to get round to seeing as many people as possible instead.

​

Any advice on navigating this and if I'm being difficult?

The problem with a lot of the older Bond games was that they concentrated mostly on gunplay, particularly the Activision games which were like CoD games with a Bond skin.

The CR section in the Quantum game doesn't capture what that film is about. However, with the gameplay and approach shown in First Light, it shows a slower pace can work incredibly well.

I think you could make a game version of films like Dr No, FRWL, TLD, FYEO this way and they'd be great.

What films do you think would work well in this style?
